I wouldn't want to see another ghostbusters w/ the original guys let alone another ghostbusters now w/ a women cast. It's a dumb premise and will be an even worse movie I'm sure.

The next bad thing Paul Feig directs will be the first, so I'm not sure what the big deal is.

Kristin Wiig is an underrated hottie.

agreed.

and i'll never be convinced that ghostbusters is a bad premise. 1st one is one the funniest movies ever made, i dont care if it has ghosts in it. 2nd one surely doesn't compare but its got some good jokes/bits.

Oh Jesus, that horrible horrible Leslie Jones woman. I'm out.

Melissa McCarthy is in the middle of one of those overexposure phases that Hollywood gets into with certain actors. But I find it hard to blame an overweight actress in her 30s for cashing in while the getting's good. She's genuinely hilarious though.

It's a beloved franchise, and its biggest star doesn't want anything to do with it. And it's a pretty radical change with the ladies.

I don't care, I guess, but it's a sign of more lack of creativity from Hollywood. And they couldn't have been more obvious with their choices. The moment you found out there was going to be an all-female Ghostbusters, you knew that McCarthy and Wiig were going to be in it. I wish they would've been a little more adventuresome. Kristen Schaal, Sarah Silverman... I don't know. Something other than the most obvious choices.

Mind you, it still deserves to stand on its own merit. If it's good, it's good. But I can understand the backlash.

To be fair, Murray was pretty much the same way when Ackroyd was all gung ho to do it the past decade.

Ghostbusters isn't a beloved franchise, it's a beloved movie with a sequel most people dump on at every opportunity and a cartoon nobody gives a [expletive] about except for nostalgia addicts. The quality-to-crap ratio of Ghostbusters isn't above 1.
